Jonathan Tuckey Design refurbishes farmstead in Piedmont, Italy

London-based architecture studio Jonathan Tuckey Design has refurbished and converted a 200-year-old farmstead in Piedmont to create a home and studio. The project, named Cascina, aims to open up the facade to reconnect the building to the landscape and also to strip back additions made in the 1990s.

New repairs and upgrades are woven into the existing structure, creating a rich tapestry.
